Hi, Sorry for post another what car thread but im guessing by the fact you've checked the thread your willing to help! smile
Im currently selling my Civic Type R FN2.

Here are my requirements.

  • Budget, around £5 with reasonable leniency (Under budget would be great of course!)
  • The quicker the car the better, taking the below points into account.
  • The car can be as un-practicle as you wish (99% of the time i have little luggage and a 2 seater is fine)
  • Would like the car to be a 'Fun' Drive.
  • I Have 5years NCB and 3 points on my license, im 22. So insurance must be sensible, but its starting to become reasonable for me. (for example ive been quoted) 182 would cost approx £800 per year, 350Z £1100 as a guideline of my costs.
  • Wouldn't like anything with astronomical mileage (sub 70K would be preffered)
  • Reliablility.
The cars that ive thought of are Corrado VR6, Mk1 1.8 MX5 (only the pop up headlights model), Clio 182's, 200SX's

Thanks for your help!

Ive been on my Iphone and just seen the error your pointing out. £5 is a bit optimistic! try £5000.

Not too keen on the Westfield, but the elan is nice, as stated above im probably being a bit too hopefull for an elan though. And a car made the same year i was born worries me!
